Procedure: Adding a Peer-reviewed Journal Article

Introduction

The Journal Articles category provides an area to capture information relating to peer-reviewed journal articles. Each entry is listed by Citation and Distribution Ready. A scholarly output is considered ready for distribution once the Own Department and Own Faculty fields have been completed.

When adding a journal article entry, once the ISSN number field has been completed, clicking the Find Journal button will auto-populate the Journal Title field. Similarly, selecting the journal title from the Journal Title extendable select field will auto-populate the ISSN number field.

There is no restriction on the total number of entries you may add.
